My First And Last lyrics

School yards to smokey bars

All these shadows a long the wall

Wide eyed under endless skies

When ceilings seemed so tall

Erase and replace

I found a monster to call my own

Reflections trace a changing face

Regrets in flesh and bone

I`ve built this castle in sand

It becomes smaller with every grain

I`ve built this future with my hands

The silouhettes mark my gain

Suffocate this child and choke on the result

These seeds with no light

A blind will to grow

Blueprints of descent

It`s etched in the past that we all know

Scarred chins and splitting shins

Caloused with fears that show

Erase and replace

I found a monster to call my own

Red crayons and open hands

I was taught by sticks and stones

Seperated but the kids still breathing

Somewhere in between

It`s when our limbs they weigh us down

We retrace the seams

But under cold rain and hot air I once watched time stand still

I stepped back and smiled at the small shoes that I`ve filled
